Group sparsity-aware convolutionalneural network for continuous missingdata recovery of structural healthmonitoring

Abstract:In structural health monitoring, data quality is crucial to the performance of data-driven methods for structural damage identification, condition assessment, and safety warning. However, structural health monitoring systems often suffer from data imperfection, resulting in some entries being unusable in a data matrix. Discrete missing points are relatively easy to recover based on known adjacent points, whereas segments of continuous missing data are more common and also more challengi
